So lately im lack of games since im waiting for the big or my most want releases like Demon Souls, Uncharted 2, Borderlands, Brutal Legend and Bayonetta (hopefully i can impor this) so in the meanwhile i recently rented and finished Wet, Halo Odious Tea came out and i finished it with a friend and theres also Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 which ill be renting, but im sure i will finish this pretty quickly. But i was despiting something and that something are the hand held games which i haven't played one in a while so i thought on buy some hand held games in the meantime, and the question is which ones?

Two recently games came out on the DS: Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box, ive never played a Mario and Luigi rpg before and never played a Professor Layton game, so ive decided to check out Partners in Time first and The Curious Village as well before playing the sequels, they're 2 different games, 2 different genres, both of them well received so ill be picking up these games hoping to have fun and see if ill buy the sequels, expect my thoughts for both games.

As all the gamer community so as me, November will be without doubt the best month of some games that im looking forward to get and im going to talk about a little of these games.
For one side Assassins Creed 2 and in other hand the long waited Modern Warfare 2, now between these 2 there’s only 7 days of difference and as you can see the games are sequels and it looks like they’ve been improved from its predecessors, mostly Assassins Creed 2, which of these games will be the winner of November or the game of the year could be?
Now Assassins Creed 2 was announced the last year and it caused so much emotion in me since I really enjoyed the first one, despite the critics it received I thought it was an awesome game, with great graphics and original story, even thought it was kind of bashed for its repetitive gameplay and missions. And now I think ubisoft has learned from its mistakes and I see how the have improved the game a lot, giving us much more different missions, weapons, places and new ways to kill our objective and the horrible lags and bugs that bothered so much people, specially the ps3 users.
From the other side we have Modern Warfare 2, which from what we have seen till now it will be much, much better from its predecessor, even though the first one didn’t lack of fun and greatness. Now we have more variety of weapons, missions, vehicles, more detailed graphics and scenarios, and well one of the few things that cod4 had, was the duration which was approximately of 7 hours and its said to be MW2 will be around the 11 hours of single player campaign. These games will be coming out in November for both 360 and ps3, the time is close and my budget is empty :O

Which side you are, Ezio or Mactavish?

So Borderlands is coming out the next month and im very excited for it, but theres something that i have with these kind of games where you choose your classes and skills and all that kind of stuff. I always spend a lot of time deciding which character type, which skills will use, customization among other things, seriously it takes me a lot of time, so after watching some videos and reading this:Classes and abilities of Borderlands i came to a conclusion.

At the beginning, i was more focused on use the siren since i thought that it would be more fun (i didn't know her complete abilities) but then for some reason i decided to play as the Soldier since i saw some info and a video of what abilities he has, which are awesome. Here some; throwing turrets to kill enemies , different kind of turrets and healing bullets, so this can be one great character.

Now after i read this, i came to a conclusion that i will definitely play as the Siren, why? well for my point of view it looks like it would be more fun to use than the soldier since she has other kind of abilities like the Phasewalk where she makes invisible herself and walk faster, this could be use for tactical stuff such as surrounding enemies or getting unreachable stuff due to amount of enemies, also while shes in Phasewalk you can do electric damage to the enemies, regenerate health among other stuff, so i really can see me playing and building this character.
Now theres 2 more characters but honestly im not interested on those since to me the hunter was good at the first since he has a bird or something to attack, i thought you could use this whenever you want but it ended up being something like a spell and the Berserker, ive never liked that style of characters, just big strong walls, but thats just me never had fun using them.

So what do you think, after read all the list with the classes and abilities, which character will you choose?

Heres a video with the classes, of course not so much detailed as the list

So when i read about a new game called Okami Den the first thing it came to my mind was of course Okami but i made myself some question about this. Will it be a spin-off? or it will be a new sequel of the game?
The question i never made was for which console will be make? When i heard that it was a sequel of Okami but for the Nintendo DS i kinda felt disappointed i mean, Okami is on my Top 10 games of all time and ive always wished to see a beautiful game like that on the HD consoles of these days, i know this might sound like im only putting my interest on the graphics but lets be honest the game looked amazing on the ps2 how would it look on the PS3 or 360? Then i saw this.



After watched this i made some observations.
First i was amazed on how good the graphics of the game looked (im still thinking it should be make for 360 and PS3) it looks like the art style graphics that i loved of the 1st game stills here which is good. Then i realized this was a prequel of the first game and i saw a more young Amaterasu (i think) which i dont know much but i feel kind of bad since i really wanted to see the older Amaterasu again. Now the part that really is important: The Gameplay. Recently ive been playing Scribblenauts on the DS which is really good looking, creative and unique but it had some flaws, mostly of the flaws where on the gameplay and controls but im sure many people will overlook those flaws just cause how unique the game was, this made me think that the developers were focusing more on the art style of the game or the words or stuff you can summon and forgot about the controls, this can happen with Okami Den as well. I'm sure im not the only one who would like to see the game on a HD console and for those reasons the developers will try to make the best to make the graphics of the game as most great as possible so, what if they forget about the gameplay and the controls? the touch screen thing is not always good and sometimes if the controls of a game sucks, so the gameplay and the game is not fun (Killzone 2).

So there all are my thoughts about the game, im still thinking its awesome that Okami is seeing a sequel and im really looking forward to this game.
